Questions
1) Highlight the implications of Imparting medical education in Hindi.
2) How Sustainable Alternative Towards Affordable Transportation (SATAT) scheme can be useful in tackling India’s stubble-burning problem?
Nice! Content coverage is very good, but I feel the first half dealing with issues of stubble burning can be shortened. Emphasize more on the how the scheme helps, You have mentioned the points but can be elaborated a bit more, like You have done in the first half. You can add benefits of reduced emissions, and enhanced soil fertility through use of compost left after production of CBG. Overall good attempt!
Thank you, i will work on suggestions.
Please review and let me know my mistakes
Excellent! Only point that can be added is improving soil fertility through use of compost by-product. In pollution, do mention impact on human health or WHO or other reports etc. Rest seems comprehensive and balanced!
Excellent answer! Very good use of keywords like circular economy. Under objective of SATAT, be more specific, reduce dependence on oil. You can quote some report/info on health impact of air pollution in NCR like reduction in life expectancy. Overall very nice readable answer!
Thanks
Nice introduction and conclusion. In the content slightly deviated from demand. Question is how it helps to reduce stubble burning problem na.
Awesome! Nothing to suggest here! Perhaps can mention a line about health impact of air pollution and reduction in carbon emission. Nice conclusion!
please review, thank you
Good answer! Some aspects have been very well covered, there is scope of minor improvement in content in the drawbacks section. You can add issue of terminology, much of it will still be in English (or scientific names in Latin). Even translated books have used same words. Second, widespread adoption will reduce ability of Indian medical practitioners/researchers to collaborate with foreigners, will hamper domestic research or being updated with latest medical advancements. Third, don’t mention Southern states specifically, use non-Hindi speakers (can include North East, besides many States with dominant non-Hindi vernacular language like Bengal also).
thank you for the correction, will keep in mind.
Content is good! Check the word limit. You should think and try to be innovative to differentiate your answer. e.g., It is nice that you have described the working of scheme, you can cut the words by drawing a simple flow/box-arrow diagram. (procurement of stubble -> transportation to plants -> conversion to CBG -> sale at outlets).
Similarly, lots of points under benefits can be clubbed e.g., simply write
– Macroeconomic benefits like reduced oil import bill, reduced CAD and reduced ‘imported inflation’.
This will reduce word usage and save time.
Thank you for the review, I will keep that in mind.
Really nice! Very balanced and comprehensive. Also add use of compost to improve soil fertility. Good that You have mentioned PM2.5, do mention its health impacts in 1 line. Overall very pleasing to read!
Thank you ☺
Good attempt! Some arguments are really nice, especially use of keywords like language barrier, social mobility. Improvement can be made in negative aspects of the move. Lots of relevant points are missing like lack of adequate material, lack of terminology in Hindi, hampering global cooperation in medical education, impact on non-native Hindi speakers etc.
Sir please review
